Just a heads up.

A friend just sent me an instagram ad for a big sale at PSA, the ammo prices were ridiculously low.

I told him it was obviously a scam. The site looks legit, prices too good to be true. I looked close at the address and saw 2 letter y's at the end of Armoryy

Buyer beware.

I'd like a link... now I'm wondering if we know this link is a scam is there a way to bog it down ... as in fill up carts with stuff but don't finalize anything... or just hit them with multiple questions?
 
Looking at it again. Look at the mispellings in the address bar. 2 L's 1T states is misspelled and ends in 2 Y's. It is crazy how your brain will correct it and make you think its right.

Anybody who is familiar with the PSA site would go...WTF is this place?!?

But, yea, pricing is ridiculous. Anybody who falls for that is not using their head.

My trust level with AI and the internet is getting lower and lower. I try to go direct to sites because links can be faked so easy by scammers. A link can look real but it actually points to another place entirely.

Stay diligent.
 
It would be fun to mess with them. I hate scammers.

I wonder if the real Palmetto State Armory knows? I mean they must. They probably can't do anything anyway.

The tin foil hat part of my personality wonders if anti gun folks would do stuff like this to target us, use our money against us and document our addresses.

I wouldn't doubt it, they will do anything to try to take away guns.

You misspelled "misspellings" so I can see your point but my brain does not see anything but YY in the address bar.
 
since I can't spell worth a hoot and I'm sure I have some minor form of Dyslexia those things would slide right past me... now five dollars and change for a 50 round box of 9mm.... man that is a deal.... but then I never could actually find an address anywhere on the site. I know where the store is here in town and I'm pretty sure where the one in Columbia is. ...yep, just checked thought I saw the Columbia Store coming back from the beach two weeks ago.... and all their stores are listed on the real site.
